PM’s assurance speech for Singapore to move forward and a trust and cooperation for the citizen. God less Singapore and it’s nejghbouring countries. Hope he succeed and abide by what he has spoken.
Congratulation and best wishes on your new endeavour. Majulah Singapura.
No more $3 chicken rice……….. all thanks to glorious PAP
If you cannot afford $4 chicken rice, the problem probably lies with you.
Singaporeans must find jobs to buy chicken rice
@@JustAnotherFish543 LHL take control of everything..Unlike his father, he is greedy.
inflation isn't exactly their fault, it's just how economics works. It's a global issue, not something only Singapore experiences. In fact compared to places like Turkey and Argentina our inflation is quite tame, and the PAP has arguably done a decent job of managing inflation amidst the current global economic situation.
@@limmuquan4796i like comparing with the worst so that we are not at the bottom its ok
Great speech!
As a Cambodian I really respect Mr. Lee Hsien Loong.
PROUD TO BE SINGAPOREAN. OUR COUNTRY IS THE STRONGEST IN ASIA AND THE WORLD.
😂😂😂😂
May God grant our new Prime Minister, Lawrence Wong His wisdom, knowledge and discernment spirit to lead the little red dot country Singapore and her people with integrity and righteousness.
Father God, we ask You to fill our city, state and nation Government leaders with Your wisdom, understanding, discernment and knowledge. Draw our Prime Minister and his cabinet ministers to You and cause to know and fulfil Your purpose. Lord, please protect Singapore from the division the challenges our ability to live lives pleasing to You. Help them to lead the country in righteousness, transparency and protect us from any corruption.
Own self praise own
Actually ah, the speech is very beautifully written, like literature leh....
Mrs Lawrence Wong is so graceful & beautiful ❤️

🤣🤣 🤣🤣🤣
Best wishes sir
Tahniah Singapura.
Moga terus sukses dengan Perdana Menteri baru.
All the best, sir. -from Malaysia
It will be the same old PAPIE crappie!
I congratulate the new 4th Singapore Prime Minister. They protected Singaporeans and the people who lived there. "I wish I could escape the city and non-town with a loud noise. There are no forests and waterfalls." It is not a horror SG game in real-life.
Good for him. For the rest of us… we’ll see.
讲话最清楚了，他的英语每个字都可以听得一清二楚。语言天才
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Congratulations with best wishes for our new pm.
A proper handover is what keep us going ahead of the rest. This is my Singapore. May God bless Singapore with light, peace and progress.
God bless.
Could you plz make sure there’s no hidden cams in the public washrooms?
and air cons
Congratulations Sir PM Wong👏
Boss...comelah ..to ipoh we make u chief ministers....
Strongly, disagreed with you, sir
Let's normalize verbalizing our points and not just spitting hot takes that have zero content or meaning.
Nothing against him as a person or PM but he speaks real funny imo. Has weird inflections, pacing, and drags out his words at odd places. E.g. even at 0:01 the use of the word "colleagues" --- he says "ker-LEEEKS" as opposed to "COLL-leegs" ... it feels as though he had a speech coach who told him he had to slow things down and add emphasis, which is good, but then went overboard with it... lol
Nothing against? Are you sure?
@@64ytb I just find it more curious than anything else.
I usually find his speeches a little weird too.
@nervxxx I'm guessing you're perhaps not local then - in singapore and some parts of malaysia, it is pronounced colloquially as 'KERleeggs', amongst other seemingly strange pronunciations like 'KAHPUCK' instead of car park.
he sounds singaporean.
Majulah Singapura!
OWNSELF ......OWNSELF🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Did you mean ownself check ownself? It looks like spreading hate comments doesn't make you very smart huh!
@@JustAnotherFish543 You must a millennials/gen z kids.
He speaks clearly unlike many in the UK.
@@JustAnotherFish543which part is hate comment? Another wokee commentator here.
Seeing Tharman sitting on the table nearby is such a shame. He's so much more distinguished. Alas, Singapore wasn't ready.
Well done Lawrence on your promotion. You did so well for your boss during covid. Well deserved.
Did well? He was the one that pushed for 9% GST just to remind you
They sold out to the globalists during the "Covid Plandemic".
@@MystiFiCation27 well aware. It was sarcasm.
Covid vaccination many Singaporeans passed away
@@nikkicherry6559 exactly which is why he got the promotion, for succeeding in pushing a high number of vaks. It’s not hard though with sinkies. We have been so programmed to follow.
Wah 👏🏻
Great & well crafted speech.
Only suckers will fall for it.
Congratulations ,🍾 再接再厉🙏🙏👏👏
Congratulations…. God bless…
wonderful speech...
🤮🤮🤮🤮
Well done!
Let's always do alot of good ❤️
Congrats to the new prime minister!
Trust, once earned, has to be rigorously maintained. It's a house-of-cards, takes time and extreme care to build but only a second and a mere gust of wind to destroy. Do not trust blindly.
Let's go!
Go where? Timbuktu?
@@nomanisanisland2109 Sure, I'll go to Timbuktu with you. Tell me when we leave.
Praying for Mr. PM to God, that He will endow you wisdom and knowledge in running the Country of great many people.
BTO.....30 YEAR LEASE👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you sir.. Majulah Singapura.. 👍🇸🇬
PAP found the Perfect Scapegoat 😂
Congratulations sir
Congrats to the new PM 🤝
For what?? GST? Inflation? More POFMA? More 💉💉💉?
Congratulations sir💐💐
"multiracialism" *cuts to shot of old Chinese men*. Very diverse.
Whats wong in this picture.
nothing, only your existence
All the best PM Wong
Yup. More POFMA coming up.
CDC VOUCHERS EVERY MONTH.....1000$ RA🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ceca still lives.
Take they themselves forward is it? LOL. J
This guy is a Humble person and Humanitarian....Best of Luck to you Sir..👌👍🙏🌈😊
Humanitarian??? For pushing up the GST rates! You, like the masses, have long been hoodwinked.
PRESIDENT??????????
CITIZENS???????
PAY🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣AND PAY🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Imagine being so illiterate that you have to use all caps and emojis just to get a simple point across.
President is no longer a behave like late Ong Teng Cheong. He doesnt care abt PAP although He was a PAP member. He said that PAP wont support him if he run for 2nd term.
The world would be better of with hundreds of Singapores competing to attract inhabitants. Singapore is a top example of how the world would work better: with Governments competing to cater to a mobile citizenry. Big countries are a security risk to the human race.
Looking forward to what you can do to rein in inflation - something your predecessor failed to do. Singapore is now one of the most expense place to live. So don't be so generous in your praise of him.
Lay out your economic policy then. Inflation is normal in this financial system.
Chinapore premier 😅
lucky not Indiapore. Singapore will become so dirty
Who are the "us"? You ignore locals and bring in foreigners. Vivian and Shan live at Ridout Rd when the rest have difficulty buying an itsy bitsy flat.
i've lived overseas, you don't realise how good HDB is. If even HDB you have problems owning, you're kinda worthless
Double speak
it's ok as long as you get the usa out
Did you mean that Singapore moving forwards but we malaysia moving backwards never can overtaking lion city always stay behind time and let them keep looking down and laughing at us when they broke away and form independent after joined us few years there
Well done for pushing for 9% GST!!! 💀💀🤡🤡
Dun forget, he has announced for an increase on 2030 earlier. So it is not 9% now. Typical Singaporean.
It is said that "the two percentage point GST hike - from 7 per cent to 8 per cent on Jan 1, 2023, and to 9 per cent on Jan 1, 2024 - is meant to close the gap between revenue and expenditure until 2030."
You will lead your own way not someone plan for you, i hope
He say bring Singapore forward He will be the first to put his wallet forward to collect more
Don't we all like this amusement
He needs English pronunciation lessons. What a shame when he meets global leaders and international media.
Say that to his face.
@lycan2494 if I meet him, I will.
👎👎👎
1st of all revert gst change back to 7% lah life so harsh & hostile I can’t stand it about to gg liao
BUILD MORE CASINOS....NO MORE CASINO LEVIES🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼KENNY RODGERS.....THE GAMBLERS🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼
PAP again lol
Why you say that like it's not how the system works. Currently PAP is the ruling party. Obviously it's going to be a PAP leader who takes up the role
Standby to get our wallet dry up faster... Pay and pay...!!!
The world would be better of with hundreds of Singapores competing to attract inhabitants. Singapore is a top example of how the world would work better: with Governments competing to cater to a mobile citizenry.
PAP become our leader
Yes, due to a multitude of Zombies!
Your leader. Speak for yourself.
Let us conquer Malaysia, not only Johor but the whole Malaysia, majulah Singapura, bois and gurls 💪
Stop having woods so early in the morning

For what??? So free Ah???😳
@@nomanisanisland2109 typical sinkie mentality 😂
Nothing better to do?? 🙄🙄🙄
不要忘記新加坡是如建國在最艱难挨过的日子是如何渡过？是以色列和台湾建國的老人都知道不可以忘恩负義
He does not meet standards
